Walking in men differs from running only in the rapidity and length of the steps; but in quadrupeds, the motion or order of the feet is sometimes changed.

When Peter had come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. Matthew 14:29.

7. To range; to be stirring.
Affairs that walk, as they say spirits do at midnight. [Unusual. ]
8. To move off; to depart.
When he comes forth he will make their cows and garrans walk. [Not elegant. ]
9. In Scripture, to live and act or behave; to pursue a particular course of life.
To walk with God, to live in obedience to his commands, and have communion with him. Genesis 5:24.
To walk in darkness, to live in ignorance, error and sin, without comfort. 1 John 1:6.
To walk in the light, to live in the practice of religion, and to enjoy its consolations. 1 John 1:7.
To walk by faith, to live in the firm belief of the gospel and its promises, and to rely on Christ for salvation. 2 Corinthians 5:7.
To walk through the fire, to be exercised with severe afflictions. Isaiah 43:2.
To walk after the flesh, to indulge sensual appetites, and to live in sin. Romans 8:1.
To walk after the Spirit, to be guided by the counsels and influences of the Spirit and by the word of God, and to live a life of holy deportment.
